Hold On

Hold on tightly
to what is truly important in life.
Hold on to faith;
it is the source of believing
that all things are possible.
It is the fiber and
strength of a confident soul.

Hold on to hope;
It banishes doubt
and enables attitudes
to be positive and cheerful.

Hold on to trust;
it is at the core
of fruitful relationships
that are secure and content.

Hold on to love;
it is life's greatest gift of all,
for it shares,
cares, and gives meaning to life.

Hold on to family and friends;
They are the most important
people in your life,
and they make
the world a better place.

They are your roots,
and the beginnings
that you grew from;
they are the vine
that has grown through
time to nourish you,
help you on your way,
and always remain close by.

Hold on to all that you are
and all that you have learned,
for these things
are what makes you unique.

Don't ignore what you feel and
what you believe
is right and important;
Your heart has a way
of speaking louder than your mind.

Hold on to your dreams;
achieve them diligently and honestly.
Never take the easy way
or surrender to deceit.

Remember others on your way
and take time to care for their needs.
Enjoy the beauty around you.
Have the courage
to see things differently and clearly.

Make the world a better place
one day at a time.
And don't let go
of the important things
that give meaning to your life.
